The sweepstakes I recommend playing with 1 point is for the $25 Starbucks gift card in the “Instant Win” games because there are about 19 winners each day.

Don’t give up on playing – because lots of my readers are winning this! Remember that the odds improve a little if you can play early in the morning or late at night when less people are playing at the same time as you. So far I’ve won a total of $50 in “Gas Cash” rewards cards (can be used on anything I want to buy). What are you winning, leave a comment to share!

PostHeaderIcon Baby Mum Mum Snacks on Sale

I can’t remember if I’ve ever mentioned these snacks before or not, but these Mum Mum snacks are a staple at our house. I discovered them one day at Wal-Mart and my kids LOVE them. They are crunchy, easily dissolvable snacks made from rice rusks. We started giving it to my son when he was around 9mos and my daughter, at 3, still loves them! I usually get the vegetable kind since it makes me feel like they’re getting a little more nutritional value. I have yet to try the Toddler versions since I hadn’t seen those in stores yet.

Unfortunately, Wal-Mart is the only retail store I have seen them in. But Amazon sells them too and right now if you use code MUMBAB44, you can save 20% off their list price of $14.77 for a set of 6 boxes. If you also sign up for their Subscribe and Save program, you can save another 15% off. Just remember to cancel your subscription before the next shipment!

If you use both discounts, the set of 6 boxes will only be $9.60 for a total of 144 individually packaged snacks. Hurry though since this offer expires at the end of the month, 10/31.
